Further Now
Lost Echoes: Navigating Desolation in 'Further Now'
Lyrics
Broken, beaten down if you could see these eyes
The person feels broken and worn down, wishing others could perceive their internal struggles through their eyes.
It seems as if days go by, I get hard to find
Days passing seem to obscure the person's identity, making them harder to recognize or understand.
So hard to find (I'm walking blind)
Expresses the difficulty in navigating life, feeling lost and uncertain (walking blindly).
Up and down and down and out the same old streets
The repetition of moving up and down the same streets signifies a cyclical, repetitive pattern in life.
I've seen it all before and it spells defeat
Despite experiencing similar situations before, it only leads to a sense of defeat.
I thought that we were different,I thought it would be different
There was an expectation of uniqueness or change, but it hasn't materialized.
I was much better than this before
Reflecting on a past state when things were better than the current situation.
Let's take it back to when I was yours
A desire to return to a better past, perhaps a relationship or a happier time.
I'm so lost without you, I'm wasting time without you
Feeling adrift and wasting time without a significant other.
I'm not the same without you here
Expressing a sense of personal change in the absence of someone significant.
All that's gone seems further now
All that once mattered or held importance now feels distant or less significant.
I close my eyes and try to flip the switch in my head
An attempt to switch off thoughts and emotions, hoping for peace, but failing to find it.
The one that let's me sleep but I'm stirring instead
Struggling to sleep despite trying to calm thoughts and emotions.
Awake instead (the waking dead)
Feeling alive yet emotionally dead, experiencing wakefulness amid inner numbness.
I'm sick of feeling sorry for a life I despise
Sick of feeling sorry for a life that's disliked or despised.
Or reflections from a mirror I don't recognize
Seeing oneself in a mirror but feeling disconnected or unfamiliar with the reflection.
I thought that I was different, I thought it would be different
Similar to earlier lines, an expectation of being different or unique, which hasn't transpired.
I was much better than this before
Reflecting on a past state when things were better than the current situation.
Let's take it back to when I was yours
A desire to return to a better past, perhaps a relationship or a happier time.
I'm so lost without you, I'm wasting time without you
Feeling adrift and wasting time without a significant other.
I'm not the same without you here
Expressing a sense of personal change in the absence of someone significant.
All that's gone seems further now
All that once mattered or held importance now feels distant or less significant.
I'm so lost without you
Reiteration of feeling lost without the presence of someone important.
I'm wasting time without you
Continuing to waste time without the significant other, feeling adrift.
I'm not the same without you here
Expressing personal change or a lack thereof in the absence of someone significant.
All that's gone seems further now
Highlighting the increasing distance or diminished importance of past experiences or emotions.
Time to make this count, it's way to late to start over now
Realization that it's too late to start anew, emphasizing the urgency of the present moment.
No way I'm looking back, can't find my way if it's over now
A determination not to dwell on the past, acknowledging the difficulty in finding direction if it's over.
I'm so lost without you
Repeated feelings of being lost without the significant other.
I'm not the same without you, I'm so lost without you
Emphasizing personal change or lack thereof in the absence of someone significant.
I'm so lost without you
Continued expression of feeling lost without the presence of someone important.
I'm not the same without you, I'm so lost without you
Emphasizing personal change or lack thereof in the absence of someone significant.
I'm so lost without you
Repeated feelings of being lost without the significant other.
I'm wasting time without you
Continuing to waste time without the significant other, feeling adrift.
I'm not the same without you here
Expressing a sense of personal change in the absence of someone significant.
All that's gone seems further now
All that once mattered or held importance now feels distant or less significant.
I'm so lost without you
Repeated feelings of being lost without the significant other.
I'm wasting time without you
Continuing to waste time without the significant other, feeling adrift.
I'm not the same without you here
Expressing a sense of personal change in the absence of someone significant.
All that's gone seems further now
All that once mattered or held importance now feels distant or less significant.
